Discretionary Ligatures

This feature replaces a sequence of glyphs with a single glyph which is preferred for typographic purposes.

Fractions

frac

Fractions

The feature replaces figures separated by a slash with common (diagonal) fractions. The number of fractions in a font may vary. FontFonts include fractions for at least 1/4, 1/2 and 3/4.

Ordinals

ordn

Ordinals

This feature replaces default alphabetic glyphs with the corresponding ordinal forms for use after figures.

Stylistic Alternates

salt

This feature replaces the default forms with stylistic alternates. Many fonts contain alternate glyph designs for a purely aesthetic effect; these don't always fit into a clear category like swash or historical.

ss01

Stylistic Set 1

Ornaments

ornm

Ornaments

This is a dual-function feature which uses two input methods to give the user access to ornament glyphs (e. g. fleurons, dingbats and border elements) in the font. One method replaces the bullet character with a selection from the full set of available ornaments; the other replaces specific lower ASCII characters with ornaments assigned to them.
